Is it really obvious that Vereen should start over PT? The experts think so but I'm torn down the middle. Thoughts?

I like P. Thomas against ATL. I'm choosing him over Alfred Morris for a gamble on big points.

Vereen is a little more explosive. I think they both see the same amount of looks

Would you say Vereen easily or Vereen /thread though? His legend is growing too much, i dont like it now that everyone is jumping on board

hell no. ATL's D is weak and Pierre is still the best screen back in the L.

I am curious to see his usage. I feel like Vereen is both overrated and underrated at the same time now. Then again, he might be that RB1 in PPR formats.

I would argue that he is in a PPR league. Led all backs in receptions last year. Will be playing against crappy ATL defense. Cobb goes against strongest secondary in the league. Not so black and white my friend

We thought the same thing about Darren Sproles. I like Vereen, but people are expecting too much.

Pierre is the only good recieving back in the NO offense

Not true, but he'll be the main feature in that role. Khiry is a good pass catcher, as is Cadet

I agree with you on the expectations. I was surprised to see him go for $25 and $29 in TDFL.

I would feel comfortable flexing him or as rb2 if your receivers are strong.
